    And did I mention that they raise their fees every school year? Despite of the insane fees, ni isang CCTV wala sila. Ni repainting ng walls and parking slots wala. Kaya I'd prefer to park in SM San Lazaro na lang before instead na dyan. Flat rate pa dun, 1 jeep ride away.

    Don't tell the exorbitant fees to the priest, they will tell you it goes to charity. :Off-Topic2:

    I remember there was a Supreme Court ruling in favor of the customer who lost valuable items in a restaurant parking lot despite all those small crap statement written on the parking ticket.

    May fault pa rin ang ust for not exercising due diligence in selecting the private operator.

    You have to understand that UST has a church, and a hospital. Anyone can literally go inside the campus premises. You just have to take care of yourself and avoid having situations where you will be vulnerable to things like that.

    May reasonable presumption ka rn naman na dahil nagbabayad ka ng parking, at least safe ang sasakyan mo. Due diligence lang naman talaga kailangan. I think though that may penalty clause yang contract ng ust at ng private operator for instances like this.

    I lived inside the hospital for the past five years or so, entry is not as easy naman po. Umabot pa sa point na ayaw maniwala ng guard that I actually worked there when i left my iD in our quarters and I came back to get it. Church access is usually lax on sundays, though.

    Parking is a quite difficult in UST. There are free parking slots outside but you easily spend 30 minutes and not find a slot. You can also park outside in the street but its still not free and cars get scratched up there, students with relatively valuable cars dont park there (euro cars and sports cars). One would also have to be a parallel parking god to get in some of the slots (Ive seen a lot of other students unable to park imto slots nearly twice as long as theircars)

    The problem with the carpark is that it is not under UST, it is controlled by another company by a BOT system. During day time there is not a single light bulb on. So everyone has there headlights on. When its either 12 noon, 4:30-5pm, or 7pm one could spend 30 minutes getting out. Its not USTs fault considering they have been suing them for a while

    This further proves UST's fault. If they exerted due diligence during the selection process, it wouldnt come to a point where they have to sue. Although may breach na gnawa yung operator, may responsibility pa rin UST. Anu lang ba naman yang maglagay ka sa kontrata ng periodic evaluation saka stiffer penalties for violation. Baka nga wala pang clause on settlement of disputes yan eh. Baka may corruption ding nangyari gaya sa gobyerno, hehehe.

    When my folks were studying in ust in the 80's. You can arrive a few minutes before class and still find parking. Recently, ust has been systematically eliminating free parking slots (even for us medical staff) under the guise of beautification. Probably to force folks to use the pay parking facility.

    Ngayon on normal school days, kung 7am class mo, 5:30 dapat nandun ka na. Before 6am ubos na free parking slots. Limited na nga free slots, bayad ka pa ng P300 sa sticker nila. O baka naman pati yung sticker may price hike na rin? As if anything improved? :bwahaha:

    Yup, my dad told me that when he studied in the early 80s he would easily be able to find parking in front of his building (arki was in the eng bldg before). Me, on the other hand would go around 3 times before giving up and paying the exorbitant fees in the carpark. What I do is I take my car out of the carpark at 5-6pm then find parking outside (its easier because you can park in the church or professor slots starting 5pm). I don't keep it there at night.

    And the parking slots in the espana side near the arki building are ridculous, all the parallel parking lessons go out the window because you can hit the cars on other side when you swing out while reversing. Sometimes I wish I had a Jazz or a Fiesta instead of a Sorento (When it rains hard however.....)

    pwede sila mag mag file nyan. naibalita na dati yan. kahit pa may claim sa likod ng parking ticket na wala silang sagutin kung may mawala silang gamit or mawala yung sasakyan nila. nanalo yung biktima. hindi kasi pwedeng walang sagutin yung may ari ng parking area since they asked for payment.
